Buying RC 390 is one thing, but you should be clear about the purpose, if your purpose is short weekend ride, would recommend RC 390, Now comes the version yes the new RC 390 has more comfortable ride position and not as aggressive as the previous version, but considerable amount of refinement has increased over the decade, if you are looking forward to buy it, would recommend you to go for the new one !
